Treadmill Fuse

[killiemilan]

My treadmill keeps blowing a fuse sometimes instantly and sometimes after 10 mins.Any ideas?im using a 13 amp fuse and cant get any higher than that for a domestic plug?Is it likely to be the treadmill or my electrics?

How fast are you running?

 

[killiemilan]

Running at up to 8.5 mph though wife is a little slower.Will that make any difference to the power output and potentially fuse it?

there is a problem in your treadmill.

probably a chaffed / loose wire

putting bigger fuses in things is NOT the way to solve anything

Just remember to unplug it first (But not whilst your wife's on it )
